Abstract

The evaluation of urinary stone was conducted in a group of 88 urinary stone patients who received trauma withcerebrospinal cord injury, fracture, and others. These patient was diagnosed by KUB and excretory urograms at theKorea Veterans Hospital during a seven and half years from Jan.1975 to June 1982. The urinary stone was discussedaccording to the type of injury, favorable site, time element, recurrency and factors which were able to be act asa urinary stone formation. The results were as follow; 1. Age distribution was 23 to 56 years old. The thirddecade was 28 patient(31.8%). 2. The occurence of urinary stone according to injury was 74(84.1%) in cerebrospinalcord injury, 8(9.1%) in fracture and 6(6.8%) in others. 3. Favorable site of urinary stone was most common inurinary bladder 61(69.3%), next in kidney 23(26.1%) and in ureter 12 (13.6%). 4. In cerebrospinal cord injury,early urinary stone shown high incidence as 26(35.1%). Other groups shown high incidence in late period. 5.Overall incidence of recurrent urinary stone was 31.8%. In cerebrospinal cord injury, recurrent rate was as muchas 36.1%. Favorable site was similar to primary stone. 6. The factors which were considered to related urinarystone formation were as follow; 84.1% in urinary tract infection, 77.3% in neuropathic bladder, 58.0% in previousurological surgery and 47.0% in indwelling catheter.
